5 Now therefore, if you will indeed obey my voice and keep my covenant, you shall be my ktreasured possession among all peoples, for all the earth is mine;
9 Therefore keep the words of this covenant and do them, that you may bprosper1 in all that you do.

and kept your covenant.
11 Therefore the Lord said to Solomon, “Since this has been your practice and you have not kept my covenant and my statutes that I have commanded you, I will surely ktear the kingdom from you and will give it to your servant.

and remember to do his commandments.
12 If your sons keep my covenant
and my testimonies that I shall teach them,
their sons also forever
shall sit on your throne.”
14 that the kingdom might be humble and not lift itself up, and keep his covenant that it might stand.
